Allows checking the Python types before creating an object instead of
after. For example:
```c++
auto l = list(ptr, true);
if (l.check())
   // ...
```
The above is replaced with:
```c++
if (isinstance<list>(ptr)) {
    auto l = reinterpret_borrow(ptr);
    // ...
}
```

This deprecates `py::object::check()`. `py::isinstance()` covers the
same use case, but it can also check for user-defined types:
```c++
class Pet { ... };
py::class_<Pet>(...);

m.def("is_pet", [](py::object obj) {
    return py::isinstance<Pet>(obj); // works as expected
});
```
